DUJIANGYAN: Agro-Urban Model of the East

Wrishitesh Sarkar, India

“Using the age-old traditional agricultural methods and integrating them with the urban environment thus trying to bring about a sustainable Dujiangyan”

The background study on the current situation regionally as well as on the city scale revealed the need for a sustainable Dujiangyan. The vision of the area can be laid down as follows:

- To create a live-able place for all agegroups where people can finally stay here and work closeby.

- To align the needs of the city economically and strategically so that the whole system is sustainable in the long run.

- To bring back the calm and serene livelihood of the residents and focusing more on how to potentialize the farming aspects and rural qualities and integrate them within the design to bring about a balanced Dujiangyan.
